Cameron To Come Down Hard on Libya if Obama is Cool With That

David Cameron showed fellow heads of state that Britain was unafraid to come down hard on Libya and impose a no-fly zone, providing that President Obama is OK with things.

The British Prime Minister made the announcement at this morning's press breakfast telling reporters that "Enough is enough, Gaddafi needs to be shown that we, in the UK, are watching him with grave disapproval and, as long as Barrak Obama doesn't tell me otherwise, we will be raising a UN resolution to consider instigating a no fly zone over Libya."

The impact of the hard hitting words may well have left the battling Libyan leader speechless; he pointedly made no reference to the threat of some sort of intervention during an address to troops earlier today. Although Cameron later revealed that it was not yet known if Gadaffi was aware of the potential actions because the assistant to the junior secretary of state for defence had not yet called him back to let him know what was going on.
